livemy.app vs other deployment
platforms.

No, and we're upfront about that. livemy.app is built for non-developers shipping AI-built apps – frontend, backend, databases, containers, and self-hosted tools all run on the same plan. Where another platform genuinely wins, we say so in the comparison article: if you need edge functions specifically (Vercel), or you're an experienced infrastructure engineer who wants fine-grained usage-based billing (Railway), those are real strengths. For everything else – production sites, AI-built apps, persistent backends, self-hosted tools – livemy.app is designed to be the simpler, more predictable choice.

livemy.app uses flat monthly pricing. Maker ($20/mo) and Pro ($40/mo) include everything – projects, deploys, unlimited traffic, SSL, monitoring, backups. No per-request billing, no bandwidth fees, no per-seat charges. Vercel Pro is $20 per developer seat plus usage (bandwidth, function CPU, edge requests, builds), so a two-person team starts at $40 plus usage. Railway is $5 (Hobby) or $20 (Pro) minimum, with usage-based billing on top – predictable in quiet months, harder to forecast in busy ones. For most production apps on livemy.app, the flat plan ends up costing less and you always know what the bill will be. Vercel's free Hobby plan is cheaper for non-commercial personal projects only (their terms prohibit commercial use); Railway's $5 Hobby tier can be cheaper for very low-traffic side projects. Detailed pricing tables live in each comparison article and are refreshed every 90 days.

Yes. Most migrations take under 10 minutes for a typical app. Connect your Git repo or import your Docker image and deploy – livemy.app auto-detects the stack (Next.js, React, Vue, Node.js, Python, and more) and handles containerization, SSL, custom domains, and environment variables. Migration walk-throughs with exact steps are included in each comparison article.

Yes. React, Next.js, Vue, Svelte, Astro, Vite, and any static or server-rendered frontend works on livemy.app. The difference from Vercel and Netlify isn't whether frontends are supported – it's the underlying model. Vercel and Netlify split your app into serverless functions deployed to the edge, optimized for static and JAMstack workflows. livemy.app runs your app as a persistent container (or set of containers), which makes backends, databases, AI agents, long-running processes, and Docker-based tools straightforward on the same plan. If your app is frontend-only and you specifically need edge functions, Vercel or Netlify may still be the right call. For everything else – including frontend apps that also need a backend or database – livemy.app handles both sides without splitting your stack.

Two real differences. First, audience: Railway is built for software engineers and infrastructure-savvy developers – the docs, dashboard, and onboarding assume you can read Docker logs and write a YAML file. livemy.app is built for non-developers shipping AI-built apps – designers, PMs, marketers, solo founders, vibe coders using Cursor, Lovable, Claude Code, Bolt.new, v0. Second, billing: Railway charges per vCPU-second, per GB-second of RAM, and $0.05/GB egress – predictable when you've tuned your services, harder to forecast when you haven't. livemy.app charges a flat monthly fee with unlimited traffic, so the bill is the same in a quiet month and a viral month. Both support persistent containers and similar stacks – the difference is who they're designed for and how they bill.
